Black Sabbath Final Tour Dates

Black Sabbath has been traveling around on “The End” tour for quite some time, with several expansions to the itinerary already under the band’s belt. Now they’ve updated their schedule yet again, tacking on three new U.S. shows for November. Fans living in Tulsa, Houston and San Antonio will now have a chance to see the rockers perform in North America for the last time ever–unless they expand their tour again, of course.
